To r55 whorrz it only corworii:

Be it known that l, GEoRoE G WYATT, of RUXTHF, in the county of Floydand State of Georgia, have invented certain now and u soful In:irovomonts in Plaster Composition; and I o hereby declare tho'i'oliowiiigg t ho it full, clear, and exactv (iosoription of tho invnrition, such as. will onahlo others skilled in ho art to which itapportuim lo moko and use the sumo.

'lho ohjmrl oi my invention irlo proviil :1- iloster ooioposition whichnsiilo iron being inexpensive may lH" ,rcorlil trowolorl or worked in ;rvery short Limo and will hi light in weight.

A further object is to disponrao with tho nosvssit r oi using aretarder. This I :LHCUBP plisil. by the employment of ingredients Whiohso lmrn'ionize as to prevent the plostor from fixing while being workedand yet wl'iioh will .romlily dry when on the walls.

My composition of matter consists of limo, one hundred pounds; sawdust,ono hundred pounds; slay, two hundred pounds; sand, irso hundred pounds;plnslvcr-ril pziris, three l1iTIi lE'' i pounds, and cement, onv hundredpoumla, These ingrorlionm m'o thoroughly mixed together in a dry orpowder state, and when so mixed the mass is Vory light and a givenquantity can be worked to it greater oxtont than any plaster heretoforeknown to mo. sand may be added and the Proportions started If rlcuirod,an additional amount of are productive of the best results. It is onlynooossary to arid the proper quantity of {water to bring the compositionof matter to the proper consistency. 4

A plaster morlo of the constituents specified trowris p smooth ant} Fhenonvo worlwd m a Willi will harilon in a vs T short spaoo of time andwresent 11 mm: 1 smoother appearance than those plasters omployirr woodfiber. The surfacemay he roughened, if desired, and provision may hemorlo for plasters of different colors by odd ing the pi'oporooloringlimiters. have found th at my Culnposition is most admirable forretaining applications ol whitewash, 333* oinfiii'io and paints inglrnorni but. aside from all these advantages 1 attach special importameto the fast that m com )osition being so very light one ton t ioreo willcover a greater area of wnllhpaoo than has heretol'm'o been yossihlewith any plaster composition known to me.
